903.11a Brawl is an option for a different style of Commander game. Brawl games use the normal rules for the Commander variant with the following modifications.

903.11b Brawl decks are usually constructed using cards from the Standard format.

903.11c A player designates either a legendary planeswalker or a legendary creature as their commander.

903.11d A player's deck must contain exactly 60 cards, including its commander.

903.11e If a player's commander has no colors in its color identity, that player's deck may contain any number of basic lands of one basic land type of their choice. This is an exception to rule 903.5d.

903.11f In a two-player Brawl game, each player's starting life total is 25. In a multiplayer Brawl game, each player's starting life total is 30.

903.11g In any Brawl game, the first time a player takes a mulligan, they draw a new hand of as many cards as they had before. Subsequent hands decrease by one card as normal.

903.11h Brawl games do not use the state-based action described in rule 704.5v, which causes a player to lose the game if they've been dealt 21 or more combat damage by a commander.
